Hello I could really use some detailed advise I`ve been reading a lot of misinformation from people guessing at the answer due to having no education in this technical field.
1st I will explain the intended purpose, My vehicle distributor cap and rotor is worn I sanded the contacts inside to buy some time as it was acting up but for the new parts this time I was thinking of using some 3m silicone paste dielectric grease I bought for other reasons...
I`ve read to use sparingly and not glob it on but very thin layer over the contact points.
The question is since these are none friction contact points can it still be used sparingly ?
I say sparingly as I have read globs can cause heat to build up . ?
I have another question but to keep this thread clean I will save it for when I get a clear answer on the 1st :]
Please keep in mind I do not have an education in the field and only do simple wiring I`m just starting to get curious about capacitors and circuits.
Thank you in advance for your time and have a great day !
